AC Billing?

[Guest guest]

For AC users... anyone using the AC billing?

I was advised to work with the 6% group rather than the 5% group due to

apparent better quality work and thus return on investment. But I've had a

lot more phone tag than I'd expect from a company trying to land a new

client and haven't gotten something sent to me they said they'd send. So

I'm concerned that if I sign a contract, I may not be satisfied with the

service.

I'm behind in my claims submission so I want to move on this now. I'm

feeing that some other parts of my office system are falling into place,

so I wonder about doing my own claims (not that I have a lot of free time,

but for $6,000-12,000 I can consider how I use my time).

What's the general feeling about the AC billing service thusfar?

Gwen - If I recall correctly, you are submitting your own claims, right?

You use AC... and what is the program you bought that makes the CMS 1500?

How are you " scrubbing " the claims? Did you simply wait for feedback and

make adjustments on your own? Does the system " get smarter " as you make

changes so later submissions go smoother, or do you simply have to know

things and make sure you do them right? Are you satisfied with the time

investment and billing/payments/chasing accounts receivable?

Thanks to anyone who can help. Feel free to respond on list or off

depending on your comfort discussing a private company.

.... and I have no financial interest in AC or any company I mention (same

goes for the laser I mentioned in the last email... I won't even mention

which laser I use) ... except I do hope that companies I've teamed with

succeed and don't go belly up!
